Effect of calcium chloride injection and freezing prior to wet aging on the meat quality of cull cows. [PDF]
Abstract BACKGROUND In Brazil, the slaughter of female cattle, particularly older animals, has increased substantially. However, meat from this category presents limitations in terms of quality, mainly because of its toughness resulting from a high concentration of cross‐links between collagen fibers.

Litter Dynamics and Nutrient Stocks in a Chronosequence of Hyperxerophilous Forest Under the Effect of Clear Felling. [PDF]
We investigated litter accumulation and nutrient stocks across a forest regeneration chronosequence in hyperxerophilous Caatinga following clear‐cutting. Using multivariate statistics and structural decomposition indices, we identified functional litter profiles and their association with nutrient cycling and soil resilience. Our findings highlight how

"Steak Dry Aging": An Innovative Approach to Producing High-Yield, High-Quality Dry-Aged Beef. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This study evaluated a novel steak dry‐aging (StDA) protocol in which portioned beef steaks were dry‐aged until reaching an average weight loss of 15% and subsequently wet‐aged to achieve a total aging time of either 14 or 28 days. The new protocol was compared with conventional dry aging (DA) for 28 days and unaged controls.

Coherent transient exciton transport in disordered polaritonic wires. [PDF]
Abstract Excitation energy transport can be significantly enhanced by strong light–matter interactions. In the present work, we explore intriguing features of coherent transient exciton wave packet dynamics on a lossless disordered polaritonic wire. Our main results can be understood in terms of the effective exciton group velocity, a new quantity we ...

Effects of Freezing, Frozen Storage and Thawing on the Water Status, Quality, Nutrition and Digestibility of Meat: A Review. [PDF]
Freezing induced ice crystal formation and recrystallization damage muscle cells, promoting protein/lipid oxidation and water loss, thereby degrading meat quality and nutrition. Optimized freezing–thawing methods (e.g., rapid freezing, novel thawing, and advanced packaging) mitigate structural damage and oxidative stress.

Seletividade de herbicidas sobre Myracrodruon urundeuva (Aroeira) [PDF]
O objetivo deste trabalho foi verificar a seletividade de herbicidas utilizados em áreas de eucalipto sobreo crescimento de Myracrodruon urundeuva. O experimento foi conduzido em casa de vegetação em duas épocas diferentes (2002 e 2003), em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, arranjado em esquema fatorial (5x4), sendo cinco herbicidas em quatro ...
